If you choose the road of painting, you must be clear about what you will do in the four years after entering the university. Four years is crucial and precious. Painting takes time and effort.
Famous painters, they all have a common feature-diligence, even unparalleled diligence.
Sketch is the most basic element of painting, which involves the problem of painting modeling ability. Important things will be done three times-modeling, modeling, modeling. (that is, whether your grasp of the body is accurate. This problem is the top priority.
No matter learning Chinese painting, oil painting or sculpture, it is inseparable from this foundation.
Gouache is related to your color perception. Some people are born with color vision, which is really difficult to change. But if you can skillfully draw the modeling problem, color can be cultivated slowly, and this cultivation represents your uniqueness.
If your sketch is good, I suggest that you must sketch well, don't let go of sketch, don't let go of sketch.
Why do you say that? I'm going to have an occupational disease again. Start talking. I hope these are helpful to you.
Some characteristics of painting are interlinked (including sculpture, printmaking, gouache and watercolor). )
The same is true of Chinese and western painting.
About "Chinese painting"-Chinese painting pays the most attention to "writing", that is, the expressive force of "line".
"Oil painting"-the modeling ability and the grasp of lines determine the integrity of the whole picture.
"Sculpture"-Only when the problem of "shape" is solved, sculpture will not be a problem. It is only a way of expression from two-dimensional to three-dimensional on paper (at present, Chinese painting and oil painting have various problems in these university disciplines, but China sculpture is the weakest. )
After the art test, remember to go to the bookstore to find more books in different directions. Look too much to have an eye. See more and understand more comprehensively. From ancient times to the present, this is very important, so that we can have the ability to distinguish and know what the "artistry" in painting is.
Chinese paintings include figures, landscapes, flowers and birds. Gu Kaizhi, Xu Wei, Fan Kuan, Shi Tao, Huang, Ni Zan, Qi Baishi and Huang Zhou are all excellent masters of painting. Painting begins with copying, which is the "vivid nature" in the six laws. When looking for a copy, you must remember to start with those people first. Say the important things three times, and what your background is will determine your future style and vision. Also, copying should not start from modern times, not from Qi Baishi, not from Huangzhou, but from watching. )
Oil painting, as an exotic product, has strong localization characteristics. Figure painting, landscape painting, still life painting, so many categories can be found. But oil painting must start from classical painting, that is, from western painting. Don't start with modern China. Don't start with modern China. Don't start with modern China. Why do I keep saying that? Because most of the oil painters after the founding of the People's Republic of China have studied the West, and their learning path has also come from the West. If they want to get in touch with oil painting, they must look for those classic masters from the first-hand western art history. If you want to draw figures, you must go to see Boehlmann's anatomy. )
Finally, say a few more words:
1, you must lay a good foundation (the ability to control lines is the most important) (calligraphy can also be dabbled in).
Besides training your own skills, you should know that you should have your own style and artistic language.
However, don't try to find your own style at the beginning of painting.
4, don't get started, first contact with people in modern art history. I mean, don't pursue abstraction, expression, exaggeration and deformation from the beginning. You have to understand that Picasso's cubism didn't exist from the beginning. He came to the present after his classical paintings when he was young. Qi Baishi and Huang Zhou are all masters of art, while Picasso, Cezanne and Dudley are all so special. )
5. Be rational about modernity (no matter how brilliant the label and status of this painter are, don't blindly chase and worship), and know what you are.
6, see more will have resolution, will have a vision.
In short, if you want to take this road, you must think clearly whether you just take this as a stepping stone or go on.
If it is a stepping stone, it doesn't matter.
If you take it as your own way, you must have both skills and ideas so that you can't go on.
